Don't make me say it twice. I'm not making a mistake. Nem's saying he won't go with you guys.　Go back to the hog farm and pull your big fat face away from me. And when you find out, get the hell out of my sight, you're making me uncomfortable. The air is rotten.

I replied nonchalantly, without inflection.
Instantly, the two kings looked stiff and jerked and twitched.
I felt my surprise turn to confusion, and then my confusion turn to anger.

''Ki!　Listen to me, you bastard!

It was the King of Nuts who shouted first, but the guard next to him changed his hue and immediately stepped forward to intercept and restrain the king.

'Hey, what a monologue!　That would be impolite!　This is the King of the Kingdom of Utopia!

Then the pigs interrupt him.

''Pugiyi-nii!　I won't allow it!　I can't stand it anymore!　Tolerant me!　I can't forgive this man anymore!　Death penalty!　Instant death penalty!

He has only said a few words, and yet he has been put to death.
Are the kings all short-tempered people?
This is still better than the Empire. There's no penetration at all.
Sabrina's hardships can be seen in the fact that she was supported by a king who can lose with his mouth to the extent of me.

You're going to be executed?　Then let's kill you guys here before that happens, shall we?

I replied with a straight face, not making fun of him.

More importantly, I can't let these guys take Nem away from me.

''Oh my!　You're only a student and you're getting cocky!　Ruckus!　Seize this one!　Torture.　The death penalty is a moot point!　He'll hurt me until I'm done with it!

Hello?　King of Nuts, we're in rare agreement, aren't we?　So how about watching this guy writhe in agony while having a drink for the first time in ages?

Then the pig and the bean suddenly hit it off and began to talk happily, grinning and fearlessly twisting the corners of their mouths.

'That's a good idea!　I'll have a good wine prepared for you!　Is the plucking his guts?

That's a good joke, right?　But it's not very edible, is it?　More importantly, what about beastman meat?　We have an abundance of delicious meat in my country. The meat of the bullfighting tribe is especially good.



----.



Huh? .........




The beastmen are ... delicious?




The lowlife...

The words escaped me.

I couldn't help but say so.
'You're going to eat a beast?

The outsider....

What!　He said it again!　Motherf*cker!　He said it again!

'I can't take it anymore!　It's a reminder of what it means to taunt a king!

Apparently I just didn't know it, but the Empire isn't the only one who oppresses beastmen.
But when I think about it, it's not strange.
In Enumasan, a citizen had bought the beastmen as slaves.
If that was the case, it wasn't strange, even if the state was oppressing them as slaves.
It was well thought out.

We have to do something about it........

And besides I can't let them.
We can't let them stay alive.

Someone has to kill them soon.

"Utopia and pascantine, right?

Stupid name.

"I have no name to answer to you!

It's too late to apologize!

I don't expect you to forgive me for this... [Vomiting Debility, Vomiting Lano Roach]

I whispered in a voice just loud enough for them to hear me.

'Ugh!'

Argh!

Then, at that moment, the two men who had been standing there so suddenly collapsed on the spot.
And they were puzzled as they pressed their mouths together.
Then their faces gradually turned red.
Apparently, the insects had come up.

''King Tong Paar!　How can I help you?!

'Hey!　King of Nuts!

Each of the guards rushes up to the collapsing king and says a few words while supporting his body.

But that means nothing.

''Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!''

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!　Come on, do you want a hearty meal?　They're delicious, delicious bugs!

An old woman makes the Nut King eat a worm.

'Booye!

You want to try this one?　I think it's called a scarecrow, right?　They're going to devour all the fat in your belly, aren't they?

Likewise, an old woman feeds King Tong Paar an insect.
Knowing that she couldn't hear, the old woman explained about the insects.

"A scarab was a creature that looked like a scarab.
It had a shiny surface, with glittering light reflecting off of it.

Then an old woman with a melodic appearance fed them one bug after another.

'Ooohhhh!

At that moment, the Nut King spits out the first bug.
A fearless creature like a cockroach was spat out along with stomach juice.


-- "'Kyaaaaaaaaaah!'"


Then the students and the general public around them began to scream at the scene.

'Nito!　What is this?!

Then Toa asks me, impatient for some reason.

'Yeah, just like last time. It's only this magic, right?　For scum like these guys.

'Not that!　If we don't, we're both going to die!

Toa's voice was hoarse and he seemed to be concerned for the two kings.

But that was wrong.
It's Nem who should be concerned.

''I hope you die.''

'What? .....

These people shouldn't be alive.

'I said let them die. These guys won't even notice if they die, but if we let them live, the beastmen and the rest of us will only be harmed. Then there's no point in letting them live.

'No! .....

It's well deserved!

I replied a little stronger.

I'm not going to let him say that I shouldn't kill him, not in a quirky way.
The Toa should realize that.
There are no laws in this world.
If you go outside, it's a lawless world.
So these people make up their own country and laws to suit themselves and do whatever they want within their grounds.
There is no sense there.
And if they don't like what they see outside, they are put to death.

That can't be right.

'Toa, if I wasn't here, Nem would have been taken by these guys and treated so cruelly that everyone would want to turn away.

'But ... didn't they say they wanted to make you a court mage?

You heard what they said.　There's no such thing.......even if they made him a court mage he would be forced to do something he didn't want to do in the end and treated like garbage. Perhaps that's what's still going on in this guy's country. I'll know it when I hear it. You know I can read emotions, don't you?　These guys don't think of beastmen as the same creatures. They don't think of non-human species as living beings...

Master Nito is right.

Then Sufilia agrees with my words.

''Humans treating the beast race in an atrocious manner is an everyday occurrence. It's normal. Especially when you're the king of a country, no matter how vile and unethical you may be, it all comes down to the king.

But....

But Toa still looked unconvinced.

'Toa?　I heard that the demon race is a race that is not interested in multiple species and attracts no one but their own kind, so I can understand why you don't understand, but this is what being human is all about, right?

Apparently, Sufilia naturally knew more about this human situation than I did.
She's been in this world longer than I have, and she grew up under a crazy king.
Maybe you've seen more than a few of those things.
But then you would say it's a hobby to tease the weak.
But Sufilia has a lot of sympathy.

And that's when Nem latched on to me again, harder.
Nem, who would normally be the first to step in front of me and intimidate me, is frightened.

To be honest, I don't really understand it either, but....

Don't worry, Nem. I'll protect you, all right? I'll get rid of anyone who gets in my way.

I looked at the two kings, including my guards, and gently directed my magic power at them.

''The Pain of the Grudge (Phantom Pain)!


""Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!" "


""Geez!""


Then suddenly they arched their backs as if a jolt of electricity hit them, and their faces contorted in intense pain.

Even this doesn't add up.
It's just a temporary ... short period of pain.

This doesn't make any sense.


Well then, Master?　Why don't we just take it one step at a time?


What?

I couldn't believe my eyes.

'What ... are you guys?'

A little bit of pain, a little bit of pain won't kill you fast and you'll enjoy it longer.　What's up, Master?　Isn't that a good idea?

You guys....


--There was "something" there, enough to fill the area around the king and his guards.


It was a sudden turn of events.

A demon?　No. Kids?　
His eyes are pitch black.
And they have no hair on their heads, instead they have horns.
The horns vary in shape from straight to twisted, but they all have two.
Their skin was a deep green color, and gleaming fangs could be seen from their mouths.
They were almost completely naked, but their lower bodies were covered with sloppy cloth.
And each of them carries a dagger and laughs as they giggle and stab the king and his guards.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot more information on this topic.

More importantly, Master?　So you can finally see, huh?　I've been waiting a long time for you to notice me!

The kids turn to me, talking as they do so, and singlehandedly put the edge of their blades into them.


"Geez!　Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! "

"Fwiw!　Eeeeeeeeeeeeee! "


And the two kings, screaming and spitting, screaming and spitting, screaming and spitting.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!　I'm not gonna kill you straight away, okay?

The two old women were feeding me some kind of insects as they selected them, as if they were adjusting their pain to respond to my will.
It was a clear jar filled with insects, but upon closer inspection, I saw that the insects inside had different shapes.



The Toa's eyes widened at the sight of this, and it was clear that he was in denial.
But Toa couldn't "see" it.
All the other guys, including Toa, could see was the king and his guards spitting bugs and screaming.

You don't have to look. But I'm not going to look away, I'm going to keep looking. It's what I did. I need to see it in these eyes.

I'm going to have to get used to it.
I'm not going to let this end.
It's all my decision.
Turning away from this is the same as turning away from the abyss.


And then two people appeared to rush in.


--You'll be able to find a lot more than you'd like to know.


At the same time, two familiar figures could be seen from another direction.

''Nito-san! ........this.......

It was Francesca and her partner, Dolly.

When Francesca sees me, she calls my name for a second.
But as soon as she realized that this was an unusual situation, she changed her expression to assess the situation.

Sabrina and Oswald, on the other hand, were speechless as soon as they saw the scene in front of them.

Vomit and "cockroaches" littered the floor, and the two kings were convulsing.
And the two convulsing kings and the three guards who accompanied them.

Some of the onlookers around them were puking.
I'm tempted to say, "Then why don't you just not look at them?

'Nito-san....what is this.........'

Then Sabrina asked me, speechless.

'Well?　I came for Nem, and then I found myself in this mess.

Then the two principals looked at me as if they were suspicious of me.
They narrowed their eyes and then looked at me, Toa, Sufilia, and then at Nem, who was clinging to them.

''What's wrong with you, Nem?　You seem spooked by something, sir?

'Well?　Suddenly he started screaming in front of me. That must have startled you a bit.

I gave them a question mark and told them I didn't know until I was bored.
But even as I said this, they didn't take their eyes off me.

Meanwhile, the two demonic communicators, but my partner, Dolly, was eagerly taking pictures.
And Francesca is running her pen.
I wonder if she's writing down a groan?

Master!　Master!　Your arm is going to hurt, but it's not going to kill you fast enough.

These children shall be named 'Phantom'.

I telepathically reply to the Phantom.

I will telepathically reply to him. All right, give him an arm until he's useless to you.

Then the Phantoms smiled and smiled....

All right, people!　That's the master's seal of approval!　I'm going to stab you in the arm now!

"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!"

The Phantoms raised their arms and looked motivated and enthusiastic.
But these voices, too, were not heard by the guys around me.
Only I can hear them.

At that moment, the Phantoms all thrust their daggers into their arms at once.

''Gyaaaaaaah!　My arm!　My arm!　My arm!

Apparently, he was still fully conscious.
The Nut King was writhing in agony with a look of grief as he held his arms.
The floor is sticky with tears and vomit.

Following that, the men of the guards are writhing in the same agony.
But nothing is happening to their arms.

'Ouch!　Ouch!　My arm hurts!

Tonpar and his two guards did the same, holding their arms and screaming.
But the guards were somewhat better than the pigs.
Could it be that they were quintessential guards?
They must be trained for pain.　
But even so, the expression on his face suggests that he can barely keep his sanity.

''Ladies and gentlemen!　Get a grip!　What in the world is the matter with you, sir?

Then Sabrina ran up to him and called out to him, but he was just confused, as if he had no way to take action.
They just called out to her, but didn't try to do anything.

Apparently, they can't use healing magic.

''This is an alarming situation...''

Oswald was stroking his long beard, which he had accumulated, and calmly peeking at the situation.
Apparently, he is thinking of a plan.
This old man is still better than that.

Toa's expression was clouded, but at the same time he was acting like he cared about me and didn't show it on his face.

In the unlikely event that he ever found out, I'd be expelled.
But even if that was the case, there were more important things to do.

I don't know what's going on here. I don't know what's going on, but I guess we'll just have to treat them.

At that moment, Oswald muttered, with a mysterious look on his face.
